Reborn From Oblivion (Nellie and Cameron) novel Chapter 38

"Don't worry. If I find the woman I want to marry, I'll love her forever," Nathan asserted with confidence.

Nellie chuckled, "I wonder which lucky girl will end up with you. She's in for a real treat."

Nathan and Nellie never ran out of things to chat about. As their talk wound down, Nathan gave Nellie a heads-up, "Hey, maybe steer clear of social media for a bit."

Nellie paused, probably guessing what he was hinting at. She was now someone who just wanted to stay out of trouble and always dodged anything that might cause her pain.

So, she nodded at Nathan's advice. "Alright. I won't go looking for trouble."

"Glad to hear it," Nathan replied.

The fashion design competition was just three days away.

Talented designers from all over the globe were descending on Milan, filling up the local hotels in no time. Not wanting his sweetheart to rough it, Cameron booked a room at Milan's swankiest hotel.

Greta was determined to perfect her design, so she coaxed Cameron into taking her to Milan's wholesale fabric market for inspiration. She hoped a few tweaks would make her piece truly shine.

Initially, Cameron resisted, "Greta, you're not feeling well. You shouldn't overdo it."

But Greta, with a pout and a plea, insisted, "Cameron, this competition is everything to me. Winning the global fashion title has been my dream forever."

Under Greta's hopeful gaze on him, Cameron gave in. "Alright then."

He became her gallant escort, joining her in scouring Milan's largest material market.

Cameron and Greta both turned their attention to Nellie.

At that moment, Nellie was wearing a grass-green blazer paired with a matching A-line skirt, topped off with a sash that fluttered whimsically at her waist, featuring folk art patterns.

She wore her hair in a princess style, adding to her lively look.

Cameron, momentarily lost in thought, didn't recognize Nellie at first. He just found himself drawn to the slender, average-height girl radiating a friendly, girl-next-door vibe. He couldn't quite explain the sudden attraction.

That was until Greta blurted out, "Nel?"

Cameron was stunned as if struck by lightning. He looked again and finally noticed the resemblance to Nellie.
